Mexican President Defends Trump and Calls Out Big Tech for Violating Free Speech

He’s defending Trump better than most Republicans.

In a strange turn of events, Mexican president Andres Manuel López Obrador recently came to President Donald Trump’s defense after social media platforms blocked his account.

Facebook and Twitter’s decision to ban President Trump elicited strong words from the Mexican president, who described the actions as a “bad omen.”

The concept of private companies deciding who can be censored and muzzled violates the freedom of speech, according to a statement AMLO made during a press conference on January 8.

“It’s like a censorship court is being created, like the Holy Inquisition, for the management of public opinion,” he declared.

AMLO said that he found Zuckerberg’s behavior to be “arrogant.”

“He’s talking about his norms, but what about freedom and the right to information? What’s the role of legal and legitimately constituted authorities?” the president said. “We can’t allow one corporation that is the owner of Facebook, or of Twitter, decide who it can and who it can’t grant the possibility to communicate.”

AMLO and President Trump have been able to forge a solid working relationship, as evidenced by Trump’s success with the Remain in Mexico policy that has largely prevented asylum seekers from Central America from clogging up America’s immigration system by having them stay in Mexico as their asylum requests are processed.

Although Mexico has all the trappings of a failed state — out of control crime, cartels effectively exercising sovereignty over pieces of land, and an inability to keep cartels in check —, President Trump has found proactive ways to cooperate with AMLO and lay the foundations for a strong relationship between two neighboring countries.

The Mexican president can sympathize with Trump because of the former’s experience with voter fraud in some of his previous attempts to run for the Mexican presidency.

Good on AMLO’s part for defending Trump and calling out Big Tech overreach. He’s actually defended Trump more effectively than most GOP leaders.

LOL. This isn't Mexico. They come to this country illegally for a reason because it's not Mexico. The laws and controls are different here. Good luck finding a multi billionaire cartel leader here. His opinion is irrelevant. That's the life he knows in his country. He doesn't speak for Americans.

He needs to worry about making his country better and not worry about Trump's very soon to be fired stupid ass.

I'm sure they didn't want to do that but they have to answer to shareholders and most likely had liability concerns with that dipshit. They're public companies. You just can't take that risk with Trump because it is your fiduciary duty to look out for the shareholders when you are public unless of course you don't care about being sued for billions by them for being negligent. They were simple business decisions to shut that fool down to not harm their share price.

God help us, if the latter is accurate.
My vote is that RIP is your typical right winger American

I say he's a Lefty who tries too hard to sound like a conservative bumpkin. There's definable/real English syntax. I'm a follower of Chomsky. I pay attention to that sort of thing.


I deal with immigrants of many sorts on a semi-regular basis. You, or I rather, can catch on to that sort of thing. The order of subject and predicate. That sort of shit.


Remember your transformation Tran? Many here will? It wasn't the simple text, so much as the ideological transformation. That was some hilarious shit.
